Do you have suggestions for great PCs for kids?
I'm gathering a short list of PCs appropriate for small children. I know a few PC makers have a few models specific to children with durable designs and materials, spillproof keyboards, smudgeproof displays, etc. Looking for your suggestions across a range of price points, form factor designs and sizes. Doesn't have to target kids directly, but still appropriate for kid use. Can be desktop/AIO, laptop and/or slates. Thanks for your help!

What's the maximum amount of memory I can put in a MacBook?
I have a late '09 MacBook (white) model MC207LL/A (2.26 GHz) and the standard answer is 4 GB. I've heard rumors that it might be able to accept 8 GB. Can anyone confirm this? More importantly do I even need 8 GB? I've recently started to use Aperture and things seem kind of slow. Maybe 4GB is enough??? While I'm typing, Crucial has 4GB (2, 2GB sticks) for $26. It almost seems too cheap. Thanks!

I think this is the same for most college...

Anybody else having major issues with Chrome in Lion?
I have never had any issues with Chrome in the past, after I upgraded to Lion, things stopped working. Tabs crash, pages freeze, the browser locks up and other nonsense. While I am running Lion on minimal RAM (2 GB), I have considerable RAM not being used and the same with the CPU. I also saw a similar comment here http://goo.gl/3x8c5 but other than that I haven't heard any complaints. Anybody else experiencing issues?

Can I update my old Macbook to OS X Lion?
I have a Macbook released May, 2007 with 2GHz Core 2 Duo and 2 GB's of RAM (1 GB was added later), and I am wondering if it makes sense to upgrade to Lion. Currently I am running Snow Leopard smoothly, although not so speedy. Will Lion be too "heavy" for me?

I have a 2010 Macbook White Unibody will an SSD make a big difference?
RAM is standard 2 GB, am considering upgrading to 4 GB if needs be, however I do not run intensive applications other than one game Portal 2. I am looking for an upgrade that will make the system more responsive overall. Funds are limited so which will give better upgrade ? RAM to 4/8 GB or hard drive from 250 GB SATA to 128 GB SSD?

How does Time Machine work?
I don't have an external HD to test with, but, essentially, I want to reinstall OS X. What I want to do is get a fresh copy of OS X after a reformat and rebuild my environment back up. Most of my bookmarks, files, & multimedia are either on Dropbox or a NAS. I need a way to recover important libraries like iTunes, iPhoto, & LittleSnapper including all the important metadata I've generated in the past year. I also need to recover some system-level settings like Keyboard Shortcuts, for example,...

I need some advice about upgrading an old macbook with an SSD drive.
I have the original 2006 white macbook model. I wanna drop an SSD in it but I've seen some conflicting info regarding the SATA 1 vs. SATA 2 support. My macbook is SATA 1, but most of the internal drives out today are beyond that, either SATA 2 or 3. I've read in a few different places that I could get a "2" drive but it would specifically need to support the older SATA 1 for it to work at all. I checked some apple support discussions and saw some posts that seemed to say that...

What is the largest replacement drive available for this MacBook.
My girlfriend is thinking of getting the new Air (she travels a lot) and I would take hes MacBook. I need more HDD than the 100 GB that it has. Can it handle a 1TB drive?
Alright, I am sort of hitting a mental crisis. I have reached a point where my current MacBook does not work for what I do.
I am using Final Cut, iMovie, and The Sims 3. It is really chugging along. I am working on selling past possessions to save up for a MacBook Pro. However, I realized that if I become less relient on the computer, and delete MANY things from my hard drive, my computer can most likely make until next spring. I highly hope that Apple does not release a magical and revolutionary iPad upgrade, so we don't feel left out! Also within the next year, I'm hoping my DROID will not begin to feel...
